These samples are stored in the file gm.dls in the system32\drivers
directory.  DLS is the offical standard for storing such samples, which
isn't supported by any Linux synthesizer AFAIK.  You may be able to
convert it to .sf2 with Swami.

These samples are a crippled version of the sounds of the Roland SC-55.
You might want to buy a real SoundCanvas device, or to try to run the
VSC-MP1's VST plugin in Linux.
